Start and driving
●
Always apply the el
ectronic parking
brake when you leave your vehicle and
when you park.
●
Never leave children or disabled people
alone in the vehicle. They could release the
electronic parking brake, activate the se-
lector lever or gear stick and start the vehi-
cle moving. This could result in a serious
accident.
●
Always take all the keys with you when-
ever you leave the vehicle. The engine
could accidentally be started and electri-
cal equipment such as the windows could
accidentally be operated resulting in seri-
ous injury.
●
Never leave children or disabled people
alone in the car. They could be trapped in
the car in an emergency and will not be
able to get themselves to safety. For exam-
ple, depending on the time of the year,
temperatures inside a locked and closed
vehicle can be extremely high or extremely
low resulting in serious injuries and illness
or even death, particularly for young chil-
dren.
CAUTION
●
Special care should be t
aken when park-
ing in areas with high kerbs or fixed barri-
ers. Objects protruding from the ground
may damage the bumper or other parts of
the vehicle during manoeuvres. To avoid
damage, stop before the wheels touch the
barrier or kerb.
●
Special attention is requir
ed when driving
through entrances, over ramps, kerbs or
other objects. The vehicle underbody,
bumpers, mudguards and running gear,
and the engine and exhaust system could
be damaged as you drive over these ob-
jects.
